Subject: 5.7 debianization : libtiff3g-dev is no longer availalable in debian/sid

Platform: GNU/Linux/i386 
grass obtained from: Mirror of Trento site 
grass binary for platform: Compiled from Sources 
GRASS Version: 5.7.0 
 
Hello,  
  
I'd downloaded the 5.7 sources from   
http://grass.ibiblio.org/grass57/source/  
[The source package is time-stamped, there "17-Jun-2004"]  
  
  
It was great to see that there's already a 'debian' directory in the  
unpacked GRASS 5.7 sources.  
  
I tried to 'debuild' 5.7, then (using debian/sid, locally).  
  
The debian 'control' file for 5.7 includes a build-dependency on   
libtiff3g-dev  
  
It appears that there is no longer a libtiff3g-dev in debian/sid  
  
  
As an attempt at a workaround, I've adjusted the "libtiff3g-dev" build  
dependency, locally, to be "libtiff3g-dev| libtiff4-dev"; I'm not entirely  
sure if it'll build, now, but I'm certainly hopeful  
  
  
Thank you
